Hey all. I was just in Cabelas in Centerville Oh and was looking at their 12 gauge Trojan listed in their Gun library . Was 800.00 list. Gun was in ok condition
When i ran the barrel inspection i was surprised to see it was 2 1/2 chamber. Double checked my measurements and it was minimal 2 1/2 . not even close to 2 9/16. I was using my Brownell's set which is machinist quality. Bores were .735. choked .040 both sides.
The guy in charge had no clue what i was talking about being short short chamber, and sealed his argument by stuffing a snap cap (2 1/4 long) in the chamber and closing the action says "2 3/4". . I packed up and left San gun. The wife was outside the inspection room, and grabbed me saying lets go as she was done with them too. Guess doesnt pay to try to save at Bass Pro/Cabelas .
Any way, 2 1/2 chamber . 1926 manufacture. Mattly
